Difference in Quality in U-Bolts on a Lift Kit

Well, they did it to me again. After giving them the exact measurments on my CJ U-Bolts they sent me another set of the exact same wrong size that they originally sent me!!! I wasted a week waiting for these things and now I have to wait again. I'm extremely pissed to say the least.



So I call Deaver Spring in Santa Ana as Robert Bills suggested and they charge 60.00 for the set and the fellow there said the quality will be better than what I get with the kit. Can anyone tell me the difference in quality between the two U-Bolts. Deaver said I would be getting about a Grade 2 from the kit people and he would provide me with a Grade 5.



Would the grade that I get from the Superlift kit ever bend or stretch out? Has anyone ever had this happen to them?



Thanks,



bill

The u-bolts and hardware you will get from Deaver Spring are superior to the stuff from Superlift, and will fit. Go to Deaver.

I seriously doubt you are getting a Grade 2 ubolt for an automotive application. If the ubolts fit the plate, then they are the right size. I got my springs from 4WheelParts Wholesalers, and the ubolts are the right size. And, they are in Irvine, not far from you.

Where in Irvine? I couldn't find a listing.

Down in the neighborhood south of the Spectrum. They are in the light-industrial area between Moulton and the I-5, and between Lake Forest and the El Toro Y. I only went there once, but it was easy enough to find.
